assessment criteria for that qualification.
ABOUT OUR ASSESSMENTS
ABOUT OUR ASSESSMENTS
METHODS OF ASSESSMENT
Not all courses are the same and not all
learners are the same. That’s why we use
different types of assessment to suit
different needs; giving you and your
learners the best chance of success.
There are four main types of assessment
used to test the hands-on skills that
learners need in the workplace, as well
as the theory needed to apply these
skills in practice.
CITY & GUILDS SET QUESTION
PAPERS
City & Guilds’ question papers are set twice
a year at fixed times. These multiple choice
and short answer papers provide the rigour
and externality required for assessing the
course theory.
PRACTICAL ASSIGNMENTS
These City & Guilds set assignments
provide structure and flexibility to
practical assessment and can be
co-ordinated around the learner’s
readiness and availability. Learners’
work can also be sampled by City & Guilds
to help you to deliver the assessments
at the required standard.
CENTRE-SET ASSIGNMENTS
These tests are coordinated and assessed
entirely by the centre. They offer a great
deal of flexibility for customers and can be
adapted to fit local needs, infrastructure
and learners’ readiness to be tested.
Centre-set assignments can also be
sampled by City & Guilds to help you
devise the right assessments and deliver
to the required standard.
E-VOLVE ONLINE TESTS
These are highly accessible multiple
choice online exams that are perfect
for assessing a learner’s knowledge
anywhere, anytime, and for reducing the
amount of administration required. They
offer instant feedback, immediate results
and are externally marked.
E-volve tests can be taken on-demand for
even greater flexibility for you and your
learners. Put simply, you can set exams
whenever it is most convenient for you.
